From The Patients...
After speaking with many patients, several requested that I set up a place where they could
tell their stories. I have set aside this area so that their stories, in their own words would
be related to the world. The following are the patients' unedited comments. In addition, several
of these patients have included their email address so that should you have questions/concerns/etc.
and would like to get their perspectives and experiences, you can send these requests directly to them.
They truly understand what it is like to be in a similar position to yourself and are eager to help
in any way they can. I hope that you find this patient perspectives area useful.

Dear Dr. Maller,
The last 5 1/2 years after the eye surgery nightmare, my life has been full of darkness, pain that is inescapable, reduced to a
useless being in society, a build up of negative experiences leading me and pushing me into a corner not to trust anybody, worst of
all being treated like a vision wreck, and all I have been praying and asking for is simply some help. I want to personally
thank you for reaching out to HELP ME! You are a physician and contact lens "genius" who is professional, highly motivated,
very skilled in your field, intelligent, but most of all your bed side manner is outstanding... caring, compassionate,
positive and allowing me the first time in 5 1/2 years to not allow constant FEAR in my heart to control my life since all of
the functional vision loss. Functional vision loss and the physical daily eye muscle spasm headaches have literally killed
my spirit to live and working with you for 2 weeks has given me hope for a day by day approach to my life.
You are a brilliant and unique physician and a good man. I am certainly "blessed" to be under your care for contact lens therapy.
With on-going appreciation,
